Understand Blair Murray will start on the wing this weekend. Mason Grady on the other. Anscombe/Ben Thomas/Llewellyn the 10/12/13 combo. Jac Morgan possibly on the bench after a minor knock.

Another plug of this. Sat down with Ben Thomas last week, going over clips of him in action. Some good insight into the decision-making at Test level, as well as where Wales' attacking identity is maybe heading. walesonline.co.uk/sport/rugb…

Really enjoyed sitting down with Rubin. Interesting to hear his take on: - Having to grow up quickly - Media 'hype' over his rise - Two years of upheaval at Cardiff - Erol Bulut/his position - His excitement over Ramsey joining - City's chances this year walesonline.co.uk/sport/foot…
Colwill says he's had struggles but he's now back with Ramsey to help him

I expect many will disagree with me but it is vitally important the WRU has a cap law which keeps the majority of its best players in the country. People need to look at the bigger picture. walesonline.co.uk/sport/rugb…
Wales must stick to 25-cap rule or bin it as more at play than World Cup

Welsh rugby's 60-cap rule has dropped to 25 appearances but potential technicalities are emerging

This is a stream of consciousness as much as anything else. But Cardiff's inaction over the last 11 days is staggering. Other relegation-threatened teams are getting managers & players in. Cardiff have done nothing. Tan must act now before it's too late. walesonline.co.uk/sport/foot…
Tan must get Cardiff out of this mess as inaction heightens relegation fears

The Bluebirds are in the middle of a relegation battle and have not appointed a manager a week and a half after sacking Mark Hudson

Spoke with this brilliant bloke this afternoon. And Cardiff City fans, he bloody LOVES you lot. Would not shut up about you, actually. A true legend who was a credit to the club. His presence will be missed. Interview online soon ⏳
